Title: Organic colloidal dispersion of iron particles, method for preparing same and use thereof as fuel additive for internal combustion engines
Inventor: BLANCHARD GILBERT
IPC: C09K23/10
Filed: 2002-12-19
Abstract: The invention concerns a colloidal dispersion characterized in that it comprises an organic phase; particles of an iron compound in amorphous form and at least an amphiphilic agent. Said dispersion is prepared by a method which consists in reacting with a base either an iron salt in the presence of a complexing agent or an iron complex, while maintaining the pH of the reaction medium at a value of more than 8 whereby a precipitate is obtained, the iron complexing agent being selected among water-soluble carboxylic acids having a complexing constant K such that the pK is at least 3 and the iron complex being selected among reaction products of iron salts with said acids; then contacting the resulting precipitate or a suspension containing said precipitate with an organic phase in the presence of an amphiphilic agent whereby is obtained the dispersion in organic phase. The inventive dispersion can be used as combustion additive in fuels or liquid fuels.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for sorting waste sacks provided with means of identification, the waste sacks with different means of identification containing different types of waste sorted at a source. The waste sacks are conveyed ranged in a row one after another on a first conveyor belt 5 past at least one first sorting station 6, which is arranged along the conveyor belt 5. The first sorting station 6 comprises sensors, which detect when waste sacks having a predetermined means of identification reach and pass a predetermined position at the first sorting station 6 and actuate elements for moving waste sacks having the predetermined means of identification from the conveyor belt 5. The separated waste sacks are received and conveyed onwards on a second conveyor belt 7. A second sorting station 8, which in the same way as the first sorting station 6 identifies and separates waste sacks having a means of identification other than the predetermined means of identification, is arranged in connection with the second conveyor belt 7.

Abstract: La présente invention permet de faire la distinction entre de bons résultats de mesure obtenus par un système de vision artificielle et de mauvais résultats. Grâce au procédé de l'invention, des valeurs calculées à partir des vecteurs d'observation de différents dispositifs de mesure peuvent être distinguées entre bonnes et mauvaises valeurs, au moyen d'un facteur de qualité. Le facteur de qualité est calculé à partir des paramètres d'une ellipsoïde d'erreur. L'ellipsoïde d'erreur est formée au moyen de la valeur calculée et des vecteurs d'observation. Si la valeur calculée à partir des paramètres de l'ellipsoïde d'erreur dépasse une valeur seuil qui a été saisie, le résultat de mesure est alors rejeté.

Abstract: A method of determining whether a wireless packet data service can be
activated in a dormant state. To activate one of a plurality of packet data services
in the dormant state, a BS transmits to an MS a Page Message containing an SR
ID identifying the service to be activated. If a service instance for the service is
unavailable, the MS transmits to the BS a response message indicating that the
service cannot be reconnected. The BS then terminates immediately, thereby
saving radio resources and improving system performance.

Abstract: Small crystals are made by mixing a solution of a desired substance with an anti-solvent in a fluidic vortex mixer in which the residence time is less than 1s, for example 10 ms. The liquid within the fluidic vortex mixer ( 12 ) is subjected to high intensity ultrasound from a transducer ( 20, 22 ). The solution very rapidly becomes supersaturated, and the ultrasound can induce a very large number of nuclei for crystal growth. Small crystals, for example less than 5 mum, are formed. The resulting suspension is treated so as to add or remove ingredients, and then spray dried using an atomizer tuned to create small droplets in such a way that each droplet should contain not more than one crystal. Crystal agglomeration is hence prevented.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a dynamoelectric stator enabling coil ends to be impregnated with varnish simply and to a high fill factor by adjusting varnish viscosity at a temperature of a stator during varnish application to a predetermined range. 
     The configuration includes a varnish treatment process including: a preheating process in which the stator is preheated; a varnish application process in which a varnish adjusted so as to have a viscosity of 16 to 105 mPa·s at a temperature of the stator during varnish application is dripped onto a coil end from radially outside the stator while rotating the preheated stator around a central axis; and a varnish heat hardening process in which the varnish is hardened by heating the stator to which the varnish has been applied. 
     In this manner, a stator can be manufactured in which coil ends are impregnated with varnish to a high fill factor, improving the electrical insulation properties and the galvanic corrosion resistance of the stator winding, and also increasing the overall rigidity of the stator.
